Everything Sysadmin: The Limoncelli Test: 32 Questions for Your Sysadmin Team

This test should make it easier to make a basic evaluation of a team. It is useful for team managers, leaders, and members alike. It is also a way to evaluate a job offer: Not wanting to join a ship of fools, you might quiz a perspective employer as to whether or not they use these practices. The score doesn't matter as much as attitude: an unwillingness or inability to change is a red flag.

How to Include a PHP or HTML File - vBulletin Community Forum

Many people are familiar with the phpinclude_start and phpinclude_end templates of vBulletin 3. You could use these to include PHP in 2 or 3 places in vBulletin. It was not useful for extending control panels, manipulating users, threads, posts, etc. vBulletin 3.5 introduced Plugins which allow you to introduce PHP code into vBulletin in over 500 key areas or hooks. This allows you to extend vBulletin in dramatic ways with relatively simple code. More information on writing plugins and products is available at vBulletin.org.

vBulletin Manual

If you have a PHP or HTML file that you want to include in your vBulletin forum, create a plugin that references that file. Then add a variable to the template of your choice where that file's contents should appear.
